Rain in the Desert!
by GrowingFlowers
A sleepy day. A super late night and a baby girl. The house was quiet when I awoke – Kaya in theater camp, Treska at the Birth Center, Falko working….. I stayed in my jammies until 12, drank coffee and walked around looking at my flowers and garden.
I love my bed, I love my coffee, I love my jammies, I love my Miso (our dog). I love our home. I just felt full of insane gratitude – for sleep, really. It made me so happy. To sleep in.
After picking up Kaya and a friend, after chocolate covered coconut ice-cream popsicles – we settled in at home.
I made parsley pesto – rather fabulous, lunch and tea. And then it rained! It really poured for, probably 15 minutes! Of course, it is sunny now, again. But we sure did get that rainy feeling. I even videotaped it – it was pouring down the windows, making sounds on the roof. It even felt a tiny bit chilly – I closed the front door.
Heaven!




oh thats sounds nice, how does it smell when it rains? i am still waiting for an answer from the medical school in Heidelberg, i had my interview twoo weeks ago……..
But i have another question, i am writing my master thesis about childbirth in a cross-cultural context and wanted to ask you, if you know any literature or paper or magazines about somethimg like that?
And by the way, how was the german midwife book? have you already ordered more of them?
greetings from warm germany
It smells like a sage tea. We are surrounded by sage plants – everywhere. Oh gosh – good luck with waiting. I am sure you will get in!! Tell me more about what kinds of papers you are looking for? I will definitely keep my ears open – have you read the International Midwifery site? I am still reading the first in the series of Bergburg Hebamme! (German is slower for me!) I haven’t ordered the next ones yet – I need to!!!
Nice to hear from you! Look forward to you writing some more on your blog…….;)
